Enhanced ComiCon event takes over Nanaimo mall
NANAIMO — Following a widely successful event last year following a pandemic hiatus, the Curious ComiCon 2023 is back in Nanaimo for its sixth year.
The all-age, free event is being hosted again by Curious Comics and taking place inside Country Club Centre on Saturday, May 6, from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. featuring a host of artists, a cosplay contest, and of course, everything comics.
Mike Drummond, president of Curious ComiCon non-profit society, said they are stepping it up a notch by doubling the size of the event.
“Last year we only kind of did half the mall, but this is the year that we come back with our full shows. We are from one end of the mall to the other end of the mall, all inside, and we’re going to have some stuff outside, hopefully, if the weather holds.”
